I think Low Rider is Auto flower
Someone will correct if I'm wrong

Lowryder, master Low and Power Stout are the only "autoflowering" strains i know of that are 100% autoflowering. there are many other crosses to lowryder out ther ethat possess a small % of AF pheno's. Check out the link in my sig for all things autoflowering.

Correctamungo... There are those who would say LowRider isn't even weed, though.
I've heard it produces inferior smoke... I'd love to see pics of LowRider buds that look good... so far I've never seen a LowRider bud - period.. so I'm not the expert - just going on heresay.... in my opinion it would be better to run with something "normal" that just finishes quickly. Black Spice does alright (about 49 days).... good Nebula phenos can be taken at 49 days... both produce really nice smoke. BS is the relaxing "can't move" variety and Nebula is the "umm.. what were we talking about?" kinda thing. I'd say get your beans going under floros and once they've hit a foot or 2 take 'em out for mother nature to finish the job. That's the point where you'll be about 44-50 days away. Not bad, really... put 'em out around mid June they'll be done long before the end of August... that would count as a pretty damned early harvest if you ask me!
If you can't start them ahead of time inside, plan on putting the beans/babies outside in mid April... bet you'd end up with MONSTERS if your veg started in April.
take care,

Sagarmatha must have at least one variety that is auto-flowering, because I got an auto-flowering plant out of the Magical Mystery Mix that Gypsy is giving away as a freebie.

Lowryder produces some pretty decent smoke. Check out the link in my sig. for lot's of great lowryder bud shots. It grows from seed to harvest in 60 days. even the fast 45-50 day strains require a bit of vegging pushing them well past the 60 day mark that Lowryder sets. I've smoked pleanty of lowryder with med users at the co-op I use to volunteer at and they all loved it. It's not going to win any potency awards but it's a far cry better than a lot of stuff out there. I grow lot's of strains and have found this one to be fun and it produces some pretty decent smoke.

I attached a few shot's of some LR I grew a long time ago. i can't find the nice bud shot's I took but here are a few shot's of plants that were about 2 weeks from harvest.

If it ain't weed, tell LEO, because I'll grow myself a big field of it! Seriously though, I grew one out this summer (1st 2 pics), and I found the smoke comparable to good mid-range buds. Yeild was about an oz. The last pic is a MasterLow that I have flowering now (about 1 month). Alex.

Low Ryder isnt bad smoke. Grow it under 24 hours of light and it can get pretty hefty for such a little plant. Considering how quick they grow you cant really beat the quality to time grown ratio of Low Ryder.

I agree with Cal, here.
In particular if you go with one of the better LR crosses, you'll get a more worthwhile product.
I'd recommend Mdanzig's Masterlow(which I believe Gypsy carries.) I grew quite a few of his early Lowryder/Masterkush x Lowryder/Masterkush


Have fun with these lil plants.

i was under the impresstion that lowryder was the fastast from start to finish 50 to 60 days from seed. true?
